MUSE :Klerlie Raymond

So I am starting a new series called Muse cause I am sure sooner than later you guys will get tired of seeing my face lol! Basically I will be showcasing bloggers, designers, pop culture icons, the girl on the street, anyone who I feel has inspired me. 
So I first came across K. on Lookbook and was immediately enthralled. I quickly checked to see if she had a blog unfortunately she didnt (I can totally understand why). 
For the most part I follow quite a few Bloggers some mainstream others not so much but I tend to idolize the ones that are adventurous e.g. the vintage virgin.
 I love people who don't quite sing to everyone's tune and this is very rare in the full figured world. With all that said I bring you Kerlie Raymond.



I'd say her style is quite Eclectic its a  mish mash of California Chic ( flower child meets edgy meets beach babe) with a  hint of Now( Modern,trendy) and a healthy dose of Vintage

So I asked K, three questions 
1. What does your style say about you? My style says whatever and whoever I am feeling that day.





2.Who is your style/fashion muse/inspiration? My style inspiration is June Ambrose. Her style is phenomenal. 


3. If you can only choose one item to wear every single day for the next year, what would it be?The one item I would choose to wear everyday for the next year is confidence, without it no outfit is complete. =]
K. I would buy a ticket to wherever you are if you would let me raid your closet!!







Do you guys like K's style as much as I do
If you do make sure you show her some love on lookbook tell her SUPPLECHIC sent you
P.S As you can tell K. loves her high waist-ed denim shorts and she is actually the one who inspired me to do my High waist-ed cut offs vid (one of my most watched) 
K. thank you for being an awesome sport

THIRTY + DAYS

So my baby (blog) is over a month old I am ecstatic. This blog has been an idea for over two years and I am happy  that it is no longer just an idea.

Big Fat Summer Challenge

I am very much a perfectionist and I want my work (blog) to look like some of the best; which is why I hesitated for so long. However I am realizing that many things  in life happen in stages. 
Today has truly been one of those days GGMG ( God Give Me Grace). Anyway this is my final post for BFSC; it is a quick overview of my looks. Please let me know which you liked the most.
P.S. The challenge was also a contest and I am in 3rd place last time I checked I would love and appreciate it if you would vote for me HERE
Thank You in advance

BFSC: TAILS

One more to go woohoo! and less than 48hrs let me see if I can do it. I am happy and sad that this challenge is coming to an end because at many times it caused me to really step out of my comfort zone. This was definitely a challenge for me because I started the challenge halfway through at the end of june so I had to get creative about finding time to take,edit,and post. Consequently I found my self being critical about some of my posts because I felt I could do better. Now imagine how surprised I was when I received such nice comments.

Now on to the post, I promise that I did not do this intentionally; if you read my previous post you already know how I currently feel about citrus. I put of my "hi-lo" post because honestly I didn't have much in my closet that fit the bill, because I get wary about trends (I could write a separate post). So I had only two items (both being tops) in my closet that fit the bill and I decided on this top. ( but then I may be biased)

P.S. I promise this will be the last time I feature this color (at least for awhile) and now you guys have learnt something about me (when it rains for me it pours lol!) I.E when I like something everyone knows

BFSC: ISLAND STATE OF MIND

I am in serious need of a vacation,since that is a long way off I will console my self by dressing like I am on vacation. I am really having a citrus moment,I have been graduating towards colors like chartreuse/citron.I was so happy when I scored this 100% silk skirt (brand new)while thrift-ing it was definitely my score of the summer.

So happy that I have only three more pieces to cross off my BFSC list. I actually made this top three years ago when I was desperately on the hunt for a cropped bustier but couldn't find one that had big enough cups. I have to say I was definitely out of my comfort zone with this outfit cause typically when I wear items like this I usually, have to have a jacket or cover-up. Strapless anything (without outerwear) is a no-go area for me because of a combination of reasons my arms and bust. Wearing strapless tops especially when you are busty can be tricky finding the proper bra is key. Thankfully stores like Lane Bryant and torrid and brands like Fig-leaves, Just My Size and Bare Necessities are listening.   
P.S I have learned that the key to wearing crop tops when you are plus size is all about what you wear on the bottom

BFSC:BABY NEON AND PRINT ( HIGH WAISTED)

I am so happy to have 3 items crossed of my BFSC list, I am still trying to come up with a strategic plan to get all the posts in by the 31st lol! So right now my focus is on finishing the challenge,I know it may seem like I have tunnel vision but I promise to post other content once the challenge is over.
When I spotted these scarf print pants at Target I did a double take.My love for palazzo pants has been growing and I had been seriously lusting for the palazzo pants at Zara, but unfortunately they have limited sizing.
Similarly my love for neon has increased exponentially.I spotted both pieces during a trip to target and I knew they would make a perfect combination.

SONSI FFFWEEK RECAP: Curves Connections & Cocktails Event & Be-YOU-tiful POP-UP PARTY

So if you are following me on any of my social media platforms you would know that I was in New York for FULL FIGURE FASHION WEEK ( click here for info). I attended two events the Curves, connections and cocktail event (Curvy Cabaret) and the Sonsi Be-YOU-tiful pop-up party. 
The first event I went to was the Curves and Connections event and the highlight of my night was having Fluvia Lacerda compliment my dress. 
I was exhausted can you tell from the picture,.... I am very shy so I have been trying to put myself out there; anywho it took all I had to walk up to her,and as you can see it payed off.
Unfortunately I didn't get any footage because I misplaced my camera, however I hope these pictures will be enough.

Fluvia Lacerda



FULL FIGURE FASHION WEEK is an annual event and last year was my first time going, this year I was lucky enough to attend a  networking event 
( my first ever Press event) 
sponsored  by Sonsi which was the pop-up party.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing/meeting bloggers, especially the ones I know virtually like Alyssa,Jennifer,Marcy,Jessica,Marie and many more.

BIG FAT SUMMER CHALLENGE: WEAR A MAXI

If you are curvy/plus-size/fat/full figured then I know that at one time or the other you have struggled with summer time attire.
So if you dont know what the Big Fat Summer Challenge is it is a challenge that requires us to wear certain items within a certain time frame (started by Jennifer of jasiferlionsclub )

big fat summer challenge

The challenge is designed to get us to try other fashion alternatives as well as get us out of our comfort zone.

For someone who loves fashion as much as I do I am usually very practical about what I buy, and also tend to buy classics. 
I really dislike spending money on trendy items for multiple reasons, but mostly because I have a pretty rigid budget and also because I thrift shop. Anyway I was on the look out for a chiffon maxi skirt; so when I spotted these bad boys in the non-plus section of Forever 21 my heart did a little dance.
P.S Just realized that I pretty much wore head to toe forever21
